Definitions

  • the present invention concerns a method for transporting blood samples in a tube system with an internal diameter that is greater than the external diameter of the applied blood samples and lesser than the lengths of the applied blood samples, the method including at least the following steps:
  • A a blood sample with an external diameter in the range from 012 mm to 018 mm and with a length in the range from 80 mm to 110 mm is introduced in a tube system that includes a dispatch station and a receiver station, and wherein
  • the invention also concerns a transport system for blood samples in a tube system according to the method.
  • the capsule thereby acts as a plug which is conveyed in a long tube system.
  • the capsule In the capsule there is typically provided the item to be transported to the desired destination.
  • Such systems are known as so-called pneumatic dispatch systems and have been used for a long time in connection with internal post or similar in large buildings. However, by such systems there is the inexpediency that several items cannot be sent in immediate succession just like that.
  • EP 2483186 B l discloses a general transport system where items can be dispatched in succession and where there is no need of providing the item in a capsule prior to dispatching, where the transport system includes a tube system with internal diameter, a dispatch station and a receiver station, and where a connection for pressurised air is provided at the dispatch station.
  • blood cells There are 45% blood cells and 55% blood plasma in blood. 4-5 litres of blood contain blood cells corresponding to 25 billion erythrocytes, 35 thousand million leucocytes, and 1.5 billion platelets, and blood plasma surrounding the blood cells and consisting of 90% water corresponding to about 2 litres. Blood plasma is made from blood by centrifugation where the plasma settles at the top and the blood cells at the bottom.
  • the LD-value is measured, which is the concentration of the enzyme lactate dehydrogenase (LD) in plasma, measured as units of its catalytic activity per litre (U/L).
  • LD lactate dehydrogenase
  • the above mentioned object is achieved by a method of transporting blood samples in a tube system with an internal diameter that is greater than the external diameter of the applied blood samples and lesser than the lengths of the applied blood samples, as described in the introduction and in the preamble of claim 10, the method including at least the following steps:
  • A a blood sample with an external diameter in the range 012 mm to 018 mm and with a length in the range from 80 mm to 110 mm is introduced in a tube system that includes a dispatch station and a receiving station, and wherein B: the blood sample is dispatched from the dispatch station by means of dispatching air,
  • step A further includes at least the following step between step A and step B :
  • Al the physical dimensions of the blood sample are checked and it is ensured that the blood sample fits the tube system.
  • the ratio between the internal diameter of the tube system and the external diameter of a blood sample provides that a blood sample unhindered can be transported through the tube system, and at the same time the ratio between the internal diameter of the tube system and the length of a blood sample will prevent a blood sample from capsizing and possibly getting stuck in the tube system, which will block and prevent subsequent transport of blood samples in the tube system.
  • a tube system may therefor have an internal diameter in the range 018 - 080 mm, though for practical, economical and space consuming reasons, among others, but also for operational reasons, it may often be more expedient to use a tube system with an internal diameter in a narrower range, as e.g. 018 - 040, or even more expedient, a tube system with an internal diameter of 021 mm.
  • the method will therefore enable checking and ensuring that each individual blood sample will fit the tube system, i.e. the blood sample is neither too short nor too long, neither too thin nor too thick, and/or neither too light nor too heavy.
  • the tube system is designed to cope with bends down to a radius of 800 mm, it is therefore crucial that the individual blood sample is also of such physical nature in the form of length and thickness that the blood sample can pass through the tube system without any problems.
  • the tube system has an internal diameter which is greater than the largest diameter of the blood samples, e.g. at least 018 mm, and external diameter depending on the material of the tube system. In case of a very soft and flexible material, the material thickness of the tube may be greater than in case of a more stiff and hard material. In a preferred embodiment, the tube system has an internal diameter of 021 mm and an external diameter of 025 mm.
  • the blood sample is dispatched without packing into additional containers as the tube system is designed to handle the blood samples as they are, depending on the ratio between diameter and length of the individual blood sample and the diameter of the tube system, and without the blood sample breaking during transport.
  • the blood sample does not have correct physical dimensions, there is a risk of breakdown in the tube system, e.g. in the form of a blockage where too large blood samples are stuck in bends or where too small blood samples are stuck across in the tube system, in particular if several blood samples run together and are wedged in the tube system.
  • the checking and securing is effected by a number of sensors indicating if the length of the blood sample is too short or too long. Also, a number of sensors indicate if the diameter is too small or too large.
  • An alternative to a sensor-controlled diameter check could be a mechanical checking where too small diameter will cause the blood sample to fall out, and where too large diameter will make the blood sample unable to get through the control and security system.
  • This could e.g. be a frustum of a cone where blood samples with small diameters fall through and where blood samples with large diameters cannot get down into the frustum of a cone.
  • the blood samples are provided in an innumerable number of variants and shapes, with e.g. one or both ends being rounded or pointed, or where one end e.g. is pointed and the other end is flat.
  • the blood samples can be aerodynamical in shape.
  • the blood samples may also have a weight body integrated therein, that being e.g. in the form of an embedded gel at the pointed end of a blood sample or a pellet embedded in the closing mechanism.
  • the blood samples may also be conical in shape where they e.g. are pointed at one end and flat at the other end, where the other end advantageously can be used as a pressing surface.
  • the blood sample check may also include vision in the form of e.g.
  • the present invention also concerns a method for transporting blood samples in a tube system, the method further including at least the following step between step A and step B:
  • A2 the weight of the blood sample is checked and it is ensured that the blood sample fits the tube system.
  • the weight of the blood sample In case of checking the weight of the blood sample, it is a scale registering if the individual blood sample is within a suitable weight range, and thus neither too light nor too heavy for the tube system.
  • the scale can e.g. include one or two weighing cells or weigh sensors. If the blood sample is too light or too heavy, it can e.g. be too difficult to guide through the tube system, and even difficult to transport all the way.
  • the present invention also concerns a method for transporting blood samples in a tube system, the method further including at least the following step between step A and step B:
  • A3 a bar code and/or a chip of the blood sample are/is checked, and it is ensured that the blood sample fits the tube system.
  • each individual blood sample may therefore be checked as well and thereby it will also be ensured that the blood sample in question fits the tube system.
  • the present invention also concerns a method for transporting blood samples in a tube system, the method further including at least the following step between step A and step B:
  • A3 the amount of the blood sample is checked, and it is ensured that the blood sample fits the tube system. This will therefore enable measuring and reading the contents of a blood sample. This may e.g. be effected by laying the blood sample on a horizontal base, or in that the blood sample stands vertically e.g. in a holder. By the reading and the knowledge of the density of the blood sample, a weight can be therefore be determined, and it may be decided if the blood sample is too light or too heavy for transport in the tube system.
  • the present invention also concerns a method for transporting blood samples in a tube system, the method further including at least the following step after step B:
  • the present invention also concerns a method for transporting blood samples in a tube system, the method further including at least the following step between step B and step C:
  • B l the pressure of the dispatching air is balanced with the dimensions and/or weight of the blood sample and with the distance over which the specific blood sample is to be transported in the tube system.
  • the transport time for the blood samples through the tube system can vary, for which compensation can be made by adjusting the dispatch air pressure for each individual blood sample depending on dimension and/or weight.
  • the dispatch air pressure in a tube system with a length of 600 m may, but does not necessarily have to be the same as the dispatch air pressure in a tube system with a length of 1200 m.
  • the present invention also concerns a method for transporting blood samples in a tube system, the method further including at least the following step between step B and step C:
  • the pressure of the dispatching air is completely or partially supplemented in the tube by supplementary air, possibly by dispatching air bypassing the dispatching station, where regulating valves applied on dispatching air and supplementary air regulate the supply of the total air pressure.
  • the ratio between the dispatch air pressure and the supplementary air pressure is not necessarily the same as regulating valves at the air inlet can differentiate the pressures according to e.g. the dimension and/or weight of each individual blood sample.
  • the regulating valves for pressure regulation are provided with automatic control.
  • the supplementary air can e.g. be air that is bypassed from the dispatch air, or it can be a separate air supply with corresponding or adapted pressure.
  • the present invention also concerns a method for transporting blood samples in a tube system, the method further including at least the following step:
  • the blood sample is slowed down before the receiving station. This will enable avoiding an abrupt deceleration of the individual blood sample by which the blood sample stops its movement instantly by contact with the delivery tray of the receiver station or similar. As abrupt decelerations will cause unwanted jolting of the individual blood samples, it is therefore desirable to avoid such abrupt decelerations, thereby maintaining the quality of the blood samples at the receiver station as well.
  • the present invention also concerns a method for transporting blood samples in a tube system, wherein the method step D is produced by means of vacuum and/or by a constriction of the tube, for example by using at least two rollers/balls in the circumference of the tube and at one or more cross-sections of the tube.
  • Another possibility of decelerating the individual blood sample before the receiver station is constricting the tube, for example by using at least two rollers/balls in the circumference of the tube and at one or more cross-sections of the tube.
  • the two rollers/balls thus constitute two contact points, and the tube therefore constitutes a third contact point.
  • rollers/balls all the way around in the circumference of the tube and in the cross-section of the tube, and preferably evenly distributed.
  • the tube will thereby not become a contact point during the deceleration, but only the rollers/balls.
  • the balls/rollers may be spring-loaded and therefore resilient, and at the same time slowing down all blood samples allowed to be dispatched in the tube system.
  • An alternative to rollers and balls is a spring-loaded funnel that may open at the outlet of the funnel.
  • a function corresponding to a funnel may be constituted by slide rails/lamellae disposed conically and resiliency in the tube.
  • the present invention also concerns a transport system for blood samples in a tube system, wherein the transport system includes at least a tube system with a dispatch station and a receiver station, the dispatch station having at least one connection for dispatching air and the receiver station having at least one braking function, and wherein the transport system is provided with blood sample control and security means.
